Description

These Homemade Mini Pizza Bagel Bites are a perfect snack or party appetizer. Crispy mini bagels topped with pizza sauce, gooey mozzarella cheese, and savory pepperoni, baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale

Bagel Bites:

  • 6 mini plain bagels (sliced in half)
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup mini pepperoni slices or chopped regular pepperoni
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • olive oil spray or drizzle (optional)

Garnish (optional):

  • Red pepper flakes
  • Fresh basil

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Bagels: Place the bagel halves cut side up on the baking sheet. Lightly spray or drizzle with olive oil if desired.
  3. Add Toppings: Spread about 2 teaspoons of pizza sauce on each bagel half. Sprinkle evenly with mozzarella cheese and top with mini pepperoni slices. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
  4. Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bagels are slightly golden.
  5. Serve: Let cool for a minute before serving. Garnish with red pepper flakes or fresh basil if desired.

Notes

  • Customize with your favorite toppings like mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, or cooked sausage.
  • For a crispier base, toast the bagel halves for a few minutes before adding the toppings.
